I have VISTA and downloaded the trial version from Microsoft and it works fine.

As I read it, after I got it is NO. It will not update anything unless, you completely format your hard drive, since it is for new computers, and not an upgrade. That is what I wanted and when I got this I couldn't even understand what I was supposed to do. You have to buy another program to get ready to install this one. So my answer would be no upgrade for any operating system. I wanted it for XP, but have a Vista too, NADA, as I read it. I sent it back and Amazon is amazing in handling returns. Thanks Amazon.............

Box only lists Vista and up, but there are drivers for XP available and I did find posts that say it does work. I also found that there can be issues though, like with Skype not working right. Google it and you will find help forum posts that may give more info.

It should work with Vista, I installed it on a win7 computer, printed several batches of checks, no other software is needed. Hope this helps.

I used it with XP, so vista should work. I didn't like it because 1 feature was left off. Tools\options\view\save workspace [was left out of this version]

It should. One of our computers has XP. We have not had any problems with installation, no errors and everything seems to be working fine.

It sure does. I have two older desktops. One has Vista the other XP and this device works perfectly.

If it works with Windows 7 it should also with Vista. It's an inexpensive piece of hardware; it's worth a try.

Yes, the box states it will work on XP, Vista, and 7. My personal experience is that it also works on 8.

Yes. I havn't in a while but last time I could. The program didn't work with my Windows XP for some reason but Vista and Windows 8 I can confirm work.

It says it is compatible with Windows Vista, XP and 7. What are you running. It works fine with my Windows Vista and on my other computer, Windows 8.1.

Yes, it does work with Vista but it helps to be a techie. It came with a Vista driver. I had to kill a Macrovision scheduler process(by id number) with the Task Manager to get one of the programs to install. The ArcSoft PhotoStudio help does not work with Vista unless you follow the error message links and install an old Windows Help program. Even with the help working, there wasn't much there so I couldn't get the program to stitch scans together correctly. The main reason I bought this was my old Visioneer 5800 didn't have a Vista driver. It doesn't seem to scan much faster. My scans have been at 300dpi so I haven't had a chance to see the resolution difference. Yes, it does work with Vista but it helps to be a techie. It came with a Vista driver.

The product listed on Amazon specifically states the platform is for Window 7/8. However the box the program came in says it is compatible with XP & Vista so you should be good to go.

When I installed this drive, I had updated my whole system, so I changed to windows 7. I did that because, I had heard that it will work with Vista, but there would be trouble if you used an IDE connector.

YES...although the specification stated on the device box mentioned Windows 8, 7, and XP it also works with Vista. I used it on Win 7 but since you asked question I installed it also on my Vista and it really works. Hope this help you.
